As soon as he opened the door, Mayor Hong raised his eyes and saw Xiao Zheng. His own secretary, Tao Zhongbin, was grabbing Xiao Zheng's arm and trying to drag him away from the door of the office, but Xiao Zheng twisted it skillfully, and Tao Zhongbin
His hands couldn't hold Xiao Zheng, and he took several steps back before he stabilized himself.
Tao Zhongbin was angry and annoyed, but he still wanted to stop Xiao Zheng, so he rushed forward again.
Mayor Hong saw this scene and said, "Xiao Tao, okay, what does it look like!" Tao Zhongbin stopped, pointed at Xiao Zheng and said, "Mr. Hong, this person doesn't even make an appointment, so he's going to rush in."
Go to your office."
Mayor Hong glanced at Tao Zhongbin and corrected him: "'This person'? Don't you know him? He is Xiao Zheng, the executive deputy county magistrate of An County. You should call him 'Magistrate Xiao'. What do you mean by 'this person'?"
Since you are following me, you still need to understand the rules."
In the eyes of Mayor Hong, he can lose his temper, which is the necessary dignity of a leader, but his secretary must understand the rules and be humane, otherwise there will be problems with his positioning. Tao Zhongbin was taught such a lesson by Mayor Hong, and he remembered
Mayor Hong's usual request suddenly became a little tiring. He restrained himself and said to Xiao Zheng, "County Mayor Xiao, I'm sorry just now."
Xiao Zheng didn't care at all, and said: "It's okay. It's your duty to guard the door for Mayor Hong. But I really have something urgent to see Mayor Hong, so I couldn't help myself just now."
To Hong Xu, Xiao Zheng's answers were much more polite and polite than those of his secretary.
Hongxu used to be a "hero cherishes heroes" and was very optimistic about Xiao Zheng. He played a key role in Xiao Zheng's promotion to executive deputy county magistrate. But later when he saw Xiao Zheng inviting Tan Zhen to dinner, he asked him to
Xiao Zheng was greatly disappointed. Perhaps it was in line with the saying "the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment"!
Hongxu had personally helped Xiao Zheng and spent a lot of effort to postpone the appointment of his secretary. Under such circumstances, as long as he saw Xiao Zheng being a little bit "disloyal" to him, he would completely turn Xiao Zheng off.
It’s a shame. Sometimes, superiors treat subordinates just like lovers, and they will have feelings of love and hatred.
But when a leader "hates" his subordinates, the consequences are much more serious than a love relationship. Therefore, no matter how capable Xiao Zheng is, Mayor Hong will never accept him again. He looked at Xiao Zheng and said:
"I'm not free today, Xiao Tao has already told me about this
You said it. Let's go." Xiao Zheng insisted: "Mayor Hong, I hope you can give me ten minutes, just ten minutes." Hong Xu flatly refused: "I don't have ten minutes to give you." Xiao
Zheng continued to fight: "Mayor Hong, five minutes then."
In the city government office, some people couldn't help but be curious and wanted to know how the matter of Xiao Zheng, the executive deputy magistrate of An County, who broke into Mayor Hong's office today would end. They poked their heads in the corridor, which made Mayor Hong a little annoyed.
: "Are you all done?"
Tao Zhongbin rushed them back to the office: "Hurry up and get to work." The cadres all retreated into the office, but the door of the office was still open and their ears were still open, hoping to hear a few words. They thought, what about today's lunch?
Chatting with people every now and then is more enjoyable than the food in the cafeteria!
Hongxu looked at Xiao Zheng again and thought to himself, Xiao Zheng is really a bit stubborn. If it were any other county cadre, as long as Hongxu made it clear that he didn't see him, he might not dare to bother him again. But
But this Xiao Zheng didn't. If he wasn't given any time, I'm afraid he would make even bigger noises and make people in the government speculate wildly about the relationship between him and Xiao Zheng.
What kind of hatred could there be? Naturally, Hongxu didn't want things to turn out like that, so he said, "I can only give you three minutes. You can come in." After saying that, Hongxu turned around and went back in, and Xiao Zheng followed in silently.
When secretary Tao Zhongbin was about to follow, Hong Xu said without looking back: "Xiao Tao, please close the door. You time the door and come in when three minutes are up."
Tao Zhongbin said: "Yes, Mayor Hong. I will time it right now."
Hongxu sat down on the sofa and said to Xiao Zheng, "Just tell me." Hongxu didn't ask Xiao Zheng to sit down, but Xiao Zheng sat down himself so that he could look Hongxu in the eyes and not be condescending.
Xiao Zheng said: "Chief Hong, the person behind the 'firecrackers' thing is the owner of the bank. This person is essentially a gambler. He invested all the money he illegally raised in the stock market. Recently, he has been in the stock market.
He has lost several hundred million, and this time he is desperately trying to open up a new situation in An County. He wants to take in a huge sum of money and then go to Macau for a big gamble. If he wins, he can make a comeback. If he loses, he may run away. By then, everything will be a mess.
It can only be dealt with by the municipal party committee and city government. This matter is extremely urgent, so I must come to see Mayor Hong."
Hongxu was also shocked. Of course, Hongxu also knew about the owner of the village. He was so active in the scene in Jingzhou, and few people didn't know about it. However, behind his back, Hongxu used huge sums of money to speculate in stocks and suffered huge losses.
I really don’t know, and Hongxu doesn’t even know about his plan to go to Macau to gamble.
However, it is difficult to say whether this matter is true or not. Hong Xu said: "Who did you listen to these things?" Xiao Zheng said: "Mayor Hong, we pressed the inside line in Zhuangzi's circle.
." This so-called "insider" is naturally referring to senior brother Zhang Yihong. Mayor Hong asked: "Who is this insider?" Xiao Zheng was startled, and then said: "Chief Hong, I'm sorry, I can't tell you.
Please tell me the name of this insider, otherwise it will be too dangerous, and I will be too irresponsible towards this insider."
Hong Xu stared at Xiao Zheng and said: "Then how can I trust you?" Xiao Zheng said: "Mayor Hong, I can swear." Hong Xu snorted coldly and said: "What is your oath worth? How many oaths are there?
Is it just to deceive people? Okay, I won’t ask anymore. Now, tell me what you want? What do you want me to do when you come to me? Do you want me to help you go to Secretary Tan and tell you?
Stay and work in An County and don’t need to be transferred?”
Xiao Zheng shook his head and said: "This doesn't matter anymore. Regarding my position, I know very well that Mayor Hong has helped me a lot. I can become the executive deputy county magistrate because Mayor Hong has helped me speak. Now,
It no longer matters to me where I work. My only request now is that I hope Mayor Hong can take charge of illegal financing. As long as illegal financing can be cracked down on, I have no other requirements. I heard people say that the city manager
Director of the Security Bureau Dai Ke listens very much to Mayor Hong, so as long as Mayor Hong makes up his mind, the evil trend of illegal financing will definitely be stopped. I believe it."
Hongxu was indifferent for a while, then said: "Are you done? I can tell you clearly now that I can't do this. I have my own difficulties."
Xiao Zheng moved on the sofa and said: "I know Mayor Hong's difficulty is that he is worried that Secretary Tan's power is too strong. However, Mayor Hong, the more you tolerate, the more people will become."
I won’t take you seriously. When they finish planning, they might let you leave just like they asked Minister Liu to leave Jingzhou."
At this point, there was a knock on the door of Hongxu's office, and secretary Tao Zhongbin opened the door and came in, reminding: "Mayor Hong, three minutes are up."
"Okay." Hongxu stood up and said: "Xiao Zheng, I have given you time, you have said what you want to say, and you understand my attitude. You can go back." Xiao Zheng looked up.
Hongxu said: "Hongshi, Chief..."
"County Magistrate Xiao, what do you want to do?" Tao Zhongbin saw Xiao Zheng wanted to say something more, so he urged from the side, "Please leave immediately. Do you really want me to call security to come up and chase you away?"
"No need." Xiao Zheng said, "I won't pester you anymore. I just want to thank Mayor Hong for giving me these three minutes. Thank you, Mayor Hong." After saying that, Xiao Zheng bowed slightly, then turned around and walked out.
into Hongxu's office.
Seeing that Xiao Zheng was gone, Tao Zhongbin finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he still couldn't help but said: "It's a bit pretentious." Hong Xu glanced at Tao Zhongbin, and then said: "Tonight, I'm going to play ball." Tao Zhongbin said immediately.
: "Okay, Mr. Hong. But, didn't the tendon in your foot hurt last time you played? It's not time to rest yet, so why don't you go today?"
Hongxu moved his right foot and said, "No problem, I feel good now. I've had too many things to worry about these two days, so I'm going to do some exercise, sweat it out, and relax my mood." Tao Zhongbin said, "Then
Okay, Mayor Hong, I’ll contact you right away and let you know
We need people from the Sports Bureau to accompany us." Hongxu shook his head and said, "Don't ask people from the Sports Bureau to come, just let them arrange the venue. The others are people from our playing circle. Those from the Sports Bureau know how to provide
I fed the ball, it was fake and boring to play."
Tao Zhongbin nodded: "I understand, Mayor Hong." After leaving the door of the mayor's office, he went to make arrangements.
Hongxu came to the window and looked at the winter sun outside, but thought in his heart that people like Xiao Zheng were devoted to their work and were very different from his secretary Tao Zhongbin. After today's events, Hongxu had a deep impression of Xiao Zheng.
Zheng's impression finally got a little better.
In fact, it's not that Hongxu doesn't want to help Xiao Zheng when it comes to cracking down on "crackers", but he really can't. Judging from Tan Zhen's current strength and relationship with the province, his relationship and background are not enough to win over him.
Fengrui. Otherwise, Hongxu would have taken care of it himself!
Now, Hongxu can only watch those people illegally raising funds among employees of government institutions, small business owners and ordinary people. As for the outcome, he doesn't know.
Hongxu suddenly thought of Xiao Zheng's words again, "The more tolerant you are, the less people will take you seriously. When they finish planning, they might let you leave Jingzhou just like they did.
Leave like that.”
Is this possible? It certainly is. Maybe it is already developing in that direction!
Li Haiyan was waiting for Xiao Zheng in the corridor. When she saw him, she immediately asked: "Master, how are you doing?"
Xiao Zheng shook his head and said: "Mayor Hong has not been convinced." Li Haiyan asked anxiously: "What should we do? Is there no other way?" Xiao Zheng thought for a while and said: "Haiyan, can you help me find out, today
Where will Mr. Hongshi have dinner tonight? I have to go find him tonight."
